Kindness

I’ve read a lot of books on how to have successful relationships, have to manage and how to lead.  If there’s one thing I could boil it all down to it would be treat people respectfully and with kindness. Which are maybe one and the same thing.  Treat people with kindness and consideration and you will be many steps ahead of most. 

Freedom

You can’t have freedom without discipline.  The undisciplined are slaves to their desires.  The disciplined aren’t captive to things that make them weaker. 

Connections

Connections are what matters. Being disconnected from reality, being disconnected from people is a scary and dangerous place to be.  Connect with people. Connect with good people. Connect with people better than you. Connect with people who challenge you.  You connections matter. Intentionally choose them. 

Help Someone

Want to build friendships? Help someone.  Most people sincerely appreciate help.  Do a random act of kindness. It may go a lot further than you even expected. 

Depth to Height

The only way to reach high and to withstand reaching high is to go deep.  Deep roots make for enduring heights. 

Train and Rehearse

Train and rehearse. It’s ego that tells us we don’t need to prepare. It’s ego that makes us think we’re good enough.   Train, prepare, rehearse. And do it again. Get better and constantly improve.  Show up as prepared as possible. Put in the work beforehand. 

Unite

Division is easy. Unifying is difficult.  It’s easier to start a war or battle than to finish it.  Division comes naturally. Unification is difficult.  Be a uniter.
